It depends on how the castings were processed. If it is from someone's home grown worm bin it probably will have egg capsule. Worm castings are not from the type of worms you would have in your garden soil. Worm growers use red wigglers that are much smaller. I have found those little red wigglers in my garden after I had applied castings.

It's a commercial bag. On the bag it says G&B Organics Worm-Gro Earthworm Castings. Ingredients: Earthworm castings, recycled forest products, kelp meal.

Earthworms are not composting worms. Casting as usually created from Euros or Red wrigglers

OK, but it says 'earthworm' on the bag. Not Euro or Red Wiggler.
